Why do we like this?

There's a band called Tinariwen that I've quite enjoyed since a flatmate introduced them to me in ~2008. Discovering their music opened up the doors to a whole lot more of a similar variety of North African sounds, and it hasn't grown old for me.

Enter Morocco-based artist Wa3aK with a remix of Maalem Mahmoud Guinia. It's pretty dope.

To quote the artist:

Gnawa music is a type of movement driven spiritual music mostly known in north-western Africa. This remix emphasizes that movement with electro house dance music.

Lufferly.
